IND Enabling Studies – Nonclinical GLP Safety Assessments
GLP/GMP-certified preclinical safety studies for your IND submission
Performing GLP Studies with InnoSer’s Support
Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) defines the quality standards required to ensure that your nonclinical safety studies are reliable, traceable and suitable for regulatory submission. However, GLP guidelines do not determine which studies should be performed. The appropriate study design depends on the therapeutic modality, mechanism of action, intended clinical use and regulatory requirements.
As a specialist preclinical CRO, InnoSer supports sponsors in designing and executing GLP toxicology programmes tailored to their specific development needs. By combining expertise in exploratory pharmacology, translational models, immunotoxicology and GLP toxicology, we help you identify the most relevant test systems and endpoints to generate meaningful safety data.
Our GLP capabilities support a wide range of therapeutic modalities, including small molecules, biologics, RNA therapeutics, cell and gene therapies. Study designs may include repeated-dose toxicity, safety pharmacology, immunotoxicity assessment, immunogenicity testing, biodistribution studies and other modality-specific non-clinical safety evaluations.
✓ GLP-certified since 2004: GLP toxicology studies and immunotoxicology/immunogenicity assessments
✓ GMP certified since 2007: in vivo adventitious virus testing & potency testing of recombinant vaccines
✓ 25 years of preclinical safety expertise: founded 2001 · EU-based · Gronau, Germany
✓ OECD · ICH S6 · ICH S8 · ISO 10993 · EMA/FDA aligned
✓ 2 GxP archives · full audit trail · client audit rights
Guesswork slows down IND submissions. GLP-compliant nonclinical safety data, tailored to your program, keeps things moving.
COLLABORATIVE SCIENTIFIC GUIDANCE
Work directly with experienced toxicologists and study directors throughout planning, execution, and reporting.
TAILORED STUDY DESIGN
No one-size-fits-all approach. Study strategies are adapted to your molecule, mechanism of action, and development stage.
AGILE SUPPORT FROM EXPLORATORY TO GLP
Integrate existing pharmacology data and translational insights to build efficient safety packages and avoid unnecessary studies.

Tierschutz
Die 3Rs wirken sich auf alle Bereiche aus, von politischen und regulatorischen Veränderungen bis hin zur Entwicklung und Einführung neuer Technologien und Ansätze. Aus diesem Grund engagiert sich InnoSer kontinuierlich für diese Prozesse und überwacht sie. Die von uns umgesetzten Maßnahmen maximieren unsere Fähigkeit, den Einsatz von Tieren zu ersetzen, zu reduzieren und zu verfeinern, und unterstützen unser Bekenntnis zu diesen Grundsätzen in der Forschung und der Arzneimittelentwicklung.
